Update (5 p.m., Jan. 19): After initial publication of this story, Avila said in an email that he has instead decided to call the restaurant La Diabla Pozole Y Mezcal.
Original story: Nearly 20 years ago, while working in a burrito joint in Cherry Creek, Jose Avila dreamed of owning his own restaurant.
The restaurateur has slowly worked his way up first a dishwasher, then a line cook at Elways, then a partner and executive chef at Machete Tequila & Tacos and his own food truck.
Now, it’s time for the brick-and-mortar.
“I have a passion for restaurants it’s in my blood,” Avila said. “And I’m ready for Denver to come take a seat at my table.”
